Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

College Jerseys

So who would wear one, who does wear one. Stand up you alumni stand up.

Of course I don't own one yet but I'll be getting the Cougar Jersey and then getting the Cougar paint job on the old C'dale. I think that just might raise my OCP standings.

w/ matching socks.
Local LBS had them for $35 so I couldn't pass it up - I didn't want to pay $75 online. Socks from Nashbar.
They're European cut and run smaller.

If you're going to sport a college jersey. Get one that's from the team, not a licensee.

College cycling is underfunded and could use the money.

Shown here. SDSU team jersey circa 1994.

Bikes: more, please.

I would wear the jersey of my alma mater, UNC Tarheels -
But I live in Durham and work at Duke U. (huge rivalry if you didn't know)

That would certainly be an invitation for getting run over or having things thrown at me...

-seriously, most folks in Durham are actually UNC fans, so I guess I'd be safe...

I agree with DinoShepherd, if you are going to get a Collegian Jersey go through the team. It might be somewhat more expensive, but you will be supporting the team. Plus in my opinion they look nicer then Performance/Nashbar Jerseys.

Hey, Once I join the club team I'm gonna definately get the Appalachian State team kit. It's pretty nice, but I'll need a new bike for the team (I don't know if the Trek 520 with dual racks and panniers will work).

I really like the college jerseys, very well made and fit me great. I've got a OSU jersey, BSCE '90,



and hope to add a UT, MBA '92,



Right now Nashbar has them for $70, and there are a bunch of 10% off coupons floating around.

I've seen the Ohio State team jersey, it cost a lot more and isn't nearly as sharp as the one at Nashbar.

I wear my Ohio Univerisity jersey because I'm in college and on the team. Yes jersey sales to help fund us when bought by non-team members.

If any of you would like one (or shorts, bibs, wind jacket) contact me.

I live in Tallahassee, the home of the Florida State Seminoles. You don't get much attention wearing FSU paraphernalia around here since so many people wear it. A U of L jersey might be fun.
